Goodreads asked Sara Whitford:

How do you get inspired to write?

Sara Whitford I would say that I became inspired to write as a little girl. Can't remember what it was, exactly. In fact, I can't remember there ever being a time when I didn't want to be a writer... and since way back then, I've never stopped wanting to write.

But day to day? Well, that's a different story. I wouldn't say I wait for inspiration to start writing. I make myself write each day, or work on story-planning, marketing, or other aspects of being an author.

It's my goal to keep creating great, new stories for my readers. That might not happen if I just always leave it to "inspiration" before I put my behind in a chair and start writing.
